All but three or four persons on the project who were possessors of "hound dawgs" were served with a warrant last week for failure to pay the tax on said dogs. A num ber of people who had conscien tiously paid their dog tax the pre vious years, finding that they were the exception rather than the rule, just naturally failed to pay it the next time and a sudden incursion from the sheriff's office brought nearly all the ranchers and a few townspeople into the toils of the law. Mr. and Mrs. Pete Slavin and Mrs. Margaret Farley spent Sunday of last week at the Marshall home. Mr. and Mrs. Albert Macomber and baby of Condon were week end visitors with relatives in Boardman. C.

Lee Austin, attending the Southern Convention of Chirop odists, says persons who walk pigeon-toed may live to be centenar ians. This is the way he explains it: "One step in six is saved In walk ing slightly pigeon-toed because one rises higher on his feet and con sequently takes longer strides. Pointing the toes outward causes the body to be thrown out of align ment, thus infecting the hip bone and spine. 'Spinal trouble means worry and disruption of the nervous system, and upset nerves lead to indigestion." Farmer Finds Out His "Ghost" May Net Hhn a Fortune, Campbellfort, Ont, (Autocaster) Frank Keating, Seymour Town ship farmer, expects to be made fabulously rich by the most terri fying "ghost" ever raised in this section. In Keating's house there has been blood-curdling pounding under the floors, the water has been unfit to drink, and other manifestations led to the belief that a ghost was mak ing it a habitat The scare created caused exten sive investigation, and it developed that the strange disturbances were caused by a natural gas escaping in the Keating cellar. Now Keat ing has got in touch with oil com panies, and expects oil men to take options on the farm. He believes that either oil or gas underlies his whole farm. At vari ous points throughout the district gas has been found in small quanti ties when wells were dug. Saved From Suicide by Cop's Threat New York (Autocater) Philip Leary decided to commit suicide, and jumped off a pier in the East River. A policeman saw nim, concluded he was drowning and threw him a rope. He did not touch it The rope sank beside him, the policeman hauled it out and made another cast Again he spurned it The policeman then understood the man was committing suicide, and drew his pistol. "If you don't come out of the water at once I'll shoot you," threat ened the officer of the law. Leary, who had jumped in to end it all, clambered out of the water lest he be killed! FARM POINTERS. (O. A. C. Extension Service) Many new alfalfa seedings thru Oregon are rather Weedy at this season, reports G. R. Hyslop, agron imist of the experiment station, fol lowing an extensive trip. It is de sirable now .to clip such fields to prevent shading the alfalfa. Where planting is not weedy it is best let go to the bloom stage when it can be cut for hay. Frequent inquiries regarding the cause of paralysis are being receiv ed from Oregon poultrymen by the poultry pathologist at the experi ment station. While the cause is not definitely known, opinion is that the disease results from some form of infection where rigid sanitation is not carried out, savs Dr. W. T. Johnson. The chief points to bear in mind in sanitation are rearing fowls in small units of not to ex ceed 500 chicks, using new ground for brooding and distributing the fowls out on the range as soon as possible. This season is the best time to decide from what part of a grain field seed will be saved for next year, remind the farm crop special ists. A good method Is to go thru this part of the Held and pull out mixed varieties, vetch, wild radish, cockle and other Inseparable weeds. Wild radish in particular is increas ing as a serious pest in grain fields. Cane maggots which cause "lim ber neck" on new shoots of black caps and loganberries are not of serious economic .importance In Or egon unless the supply of new canes is scanty. In such cases the Injured canes are cut dff below the girdle made by the maggot and removed from the field and destroyed. Red raspberry canes are frequently at tacked but usually recover and de stroy the maggots by their rapid growth. NEW KATES NOW EFFECTIVE. Beginning July 1st books sent from and returned to free public libraries receive a greatly decreas ed rate provided in a bill recently passed by Congress, and amended through the efforts of the Oregon State library and the Orgeon sena tors, following the library's protest against a proposed increase. The new rate omits altogether the for mer service charge of two cents per package, reduces the cost of the initial pound from five and six cents to a flat rate of three cents, throughout the state. All addition al pounds in the third zone will cost one cent instead of two cents each. The state thus becomes one zone for library books, which receive a pref erential rate. The State library In 1927 sent out to its patrons 23,631 packages of books. The Initial saving on these, regardless of zone and weight, would be $1,150, which will accrue to the benefit of the country patrons of the library, as they refund the postage charges when the books are returned. The State library esti mates a saving of from $3,000 to $3,500 a year to its patrons, and a great Increase In the mail order use of state, county and city libraries. Senator Steiwer gave this bill spec ial attention in response to the re quests of the trustees of Oregon state and county libraries.

"Quality Always Higher Than Price" HIATT & DIX Phone Main 1072 We Deliver Common Sense Fads A merchant doesn't invest his money for advertising merely to see his name in print. He is too much of a business man to part with his dol lars unless there is a good prospect of obtaining a legitimate return upon his investment. He doesn't advertise goods that he can't recommend, because he knows he can't fool all the people all the time, and that such a policy would eventually put him out of business. He doesn't gouge his customers, because he knows they would go elsewhere and buy for less money, and that would be the end of him. It is reasonable to presume, then, that when he does advertise an article, that article is worth having and the price is within reason. When you buy from a local merchant, that merchant's reputation for square dealing is behind the goods you buy. Keep these common sense facts in mind when you go to buy and make the advertisemnts your guide, and you will make no mistake. Huntsville, Texas, Item.
